Ellis Paul - Home Lyrics
That night the walls were speakingThe pipes inside them creakingTold a secret that was rising in the hallAnd you lay beside me sleepingWith the dreams that you were keepingThe smoke was in the stairwell outside the wallWe had moved in just NovemberThe first night, rememberWe lit a candle, laid a mattress on the floorAnd we toasted to our savingsTo adulthood, to behaving, to this house with drafty windows, creaking doors[chorus]Home...is the woman 'cross the tableHome...is dreaming in my sheetsHome...home...This house is just an address, you're my homeSo we stood like statues staringThe sirens came in blaringThe Johnson's brought us coffee for the coldAnd somewhere I heard some singingIt was my radio alarm clock ringingWith a wake-up call singing to my soul[repeat chorus][bridge]I can't believe I'm thanking JesusAs I watch my roof come downBut I can put back all the piecesAs long as you're aroundHome...sits across the tableHome...is dreaming in my sheetsHome...home...This house is just an address, you lift me from all sadnessThis house is just an address, you're my homeYou are my home You're my home, you're my home, you are my home
